More Russian Line Infantry - Perry 28mm

More Russian line infantry, here we have the 19th Division from Borodino, with each unit representing a regiment, and minus the Jagers.

Same principle as the previous post of Russian Line Infantry, these are all Perry figures, and like them this division was chosen because they retained the earlier white flags which had more variety.

And a slightly closer up view of one of the units.

This lot also brings me to over 550 Russian infantry painted, and over 4000 Napoleonic infantry painted in total. :)

Russian Jager Skirmishers - Perry 28mm

I'm resuming posting of my Russians on a weekly basis, as many more units have been painted since my last post in January. I've now painted a sizable force equal to the half the army at Borodino if fighting at at 1/50 ratio (Regimental scale), or the whole army at 1/100 ratio (Brigade scale). 

I'll start by posting some humble skirmishing Jager, these are Perry metal models, useful in games where individual units are representing battalions or regiments rather than Brigades. They make six variants in a pack so this is 4 packs of them. On the larger bases to protect the muskets as usual for my skirmish bases.

Russian Jager - Perry 28mm

Six units of Jager from Perry. These are the plastic Russian infantry kit, but I converted the standard bearer models using spare Austrian infantry arms from a Victrix kit, given Jagers didn't carry standards. 

I also painted these in winter gear with the green leggings/black gaiters, just to make them more distinct from the line infantry in game, though tactical difference between Line and Jager was debateable...

Close up look at a regiment. As for the Line Infantry to avoid having to keep track of which bases go with which unit in storage, I chose to do each unit as 1st regiment of the Division with the yellow shoulder straps.

Much quicker to paint these than the line, with no white straps and leggings to paint!  So with a black undercoat that just means painting the green and a few other colours and done.
